The relationship between bitcoin and blockchain Ethereum

3.

Bitcoin is not the only digital currency on the Internet. There are also ripple, stellar, litecoin, Ethereum and other digital currencies. Of course, the most popular is still bitcoin. But many times, some developers, entrepreneurs or enterprises will let us know that we need better digital currency. A programmer named Jed McCaleb, the father of electric donkeys, developed the reborn coin, which should be better than the bitcoin. Later, he launched the star coin, which is better than the reborn coin. What is more gratifying is that he is not fighting alone

now there is a trend that the instry hopes to develop a technology that enables all these online digital currencies to flow to each other, which means that you can transfer money freely in different online digital currency systems in the future. This technology is known as "interleaver protocol (ILP)", initiated by ripote. However, in recent months, that is, after the company released this idea, they also got the support of many famous companies in the instry, including Microsoft and the world wide web. Obviously, Ruibo currency company wants to set the technical standard of digital currency on the Internet. They want to develop a single global network, which can not only unify all digital currencies, but also unify all enterprises and indivials who use these digital currencies

"we want to be on a higher level and extract the differences between various digital currencies," said Stephen Thomas, chief technology officer of ripple. "We are trying to develop a global standard for payment."

with the launch of this agreement, we hope to enable more people to use online digital currency, expand the scope of use of online digital currency, and let us transfer funds more efficiently. This is actually the goal of many existing projects. For example, the original intention of the design of reborn currency and star currency is to allow users to transfer money to these two digital currency accounts in any currency, and to enable these two digital currencies to be converted into other currencies correspondingly. You can send bitcoin, and then the other party gets it. You can also send us dollars, and the other party will get dogecoin. However, for businesses and the developer community, there are restrictions on their use of these ledgers, so there are some problems because you can't transfer money from one payment network to another. Now, however, the interleaver agreement hopes to change that

to some extent, after ten years of efforts, they hope to develop a new network protocol, which is commonly known as "money Internet". If we go back to the early 1990s, we know that the famous Marc Andreessen founded the Netscape web browser. Now, the project hopes to play a similar role. They want to establish a standard way to send funds on the Internet. In fact, the original Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP, which defined the basic standard of the network) contained code for payment. But this code has never been used. In recent years, many companies (such as coinbase, a bitcoin exchange, and stripe, a company that helps enterprises accept various online digital currencies) are at least trying to create a conventional standard for online digital currencies. In the future, we hope to be able to send and receive money online, just like sending short messages or e-mails. However, we still have a long way to go to this paradise, but at least now we are in the right direction

4. Ethereum has established a programmable and Turing complete blockchain. On this blockchain, you can realize the proction of all kinds of digital assets through a simple program, and you can also accurately control the status of the blockchain assets circulating on Ethereum by writing a program, such as whether the asset is to be paid or locked or has a quota, whether the account is a treasure list or a white list Ethereum and other digital assets, etc. At the same time, Ethereum is a programmable, flexible and complete blockchain network foundation. On this basis, we can realize more functional procts of non regional fast chain assets. For example, I use Ethereum to set up smart contracts, which can be applied in personal daily economic life and enterprise economic activities. Ethereum is a new and open blockchain platform based on the concept of blockchain and blockchain assets. It allows anyone to build and run decentralized applications on the platform by using blockchain technology. In short, Ethereum technology is blockchain technology plus smart contract.

5. All of them are deceiving. Many people have been cheated. Don't believe them. There is no free lunch, and there will be no pie in the sky

6. With the advent of bitcoin, a new technology, blockchain, has come into the public view. What is the relationship between bitcoin and blockchain? The simplest understanding is: blockchain is the underlying technology of bitcoin, and bitcoin is the first generation application of blockchain. Therefore, we often see such a saying that "bitcoin represents the era of blockchain 1.0"

bitcoin is regarded as the first generation application of blockchain technology and the most thorough application of its code testing. However, without bitcoin, there might not be so many people who knew about blockchain now. It can be said that bitcoin has greatly improved the "exposure" of blockchain technology

later, people graally found that the application value of blockchain is far more than bitcoin, but can be applied to many instries to solve the pain points of many instries; The idea of blockchain can also provide a lot of reference for the financial field, which is the real reason for the outbreak of blockchain.

7. Xiamen Hashi technology has a zlinkchain blockchain team, which has completed a basic service platform of blockchain baas. You can pay attention to it.

8. Ethereum is also a proct of blockchain 2.0, which is an open intelligent contract complete solution. Bitcoin is the most important application of blockchain 1.0, which completes currency and payment transactions well. But when we need to record and transfer more complex asset types, we need the third step - a more powerful scripting system - to finally achieve Turing completeness (the ability to run any currency, protocol or blockchain). Ethereum is a blockchain based project, which aims to provide a Turing complete scripting language and Turing complete platform

blockchain 1.0 mainly refers to bitcoin. Blockchain 2.0 extends to all assets, while blockchain 3.0 goes beyond currency, finance, even commerce, and all areas of our lives, including politics, social relations, ecation, medical care, etc. According to the prediction and conception of people in the instry, the era of blockchain 3.0 will be realized in the next five years. At that time, blockchain will be recognized and accepted by all the public like the Internet, thus completely subverting our lives

McKinsey has submitted a technical report on blockchain to the Federal Insurance Advisory Committee of the United States. The report calls 2009-2016 the "Dark Age" and believes that all blockchain solutions ring this period are based on bitcoin, and the new era of blockchain will begin in 2016. At that time, the application of blockchain will become unprecedented. Applying an original sentence in McKinsey report: Based on the current development speed of blockchain, we believe that blockchain solutions may realize their full potential in the next five years.
